BEHIND THE BEADLE'S BACK

As the beadle is out today, ben trovato is slipping these in:

A vacationing penguin is driving through Arizona when he notices that the oil-pressure light is on. He gets out to look and sees oil dripping out of the motor. He drives to the nearest town and stops at the first gas station. After dropping the car off, the penguin goes for a walk around town.

He sees an ice-cream shop and, being a penguin in Arizona, decides that something cold would really hit the spot. He gets a big bowl of vanilla ice cream and sits down to eat. Having no hands, he makes real mess trying to eat with his little flippers. It's all over his face.

After finishing his ice cream, he goes back to the gas station and asks the mechanic if he's found the problem. The mechanic looks up and says, "It looks like you´ve blown a seal."

"No, no," the penguin replies, "it's just ice cream."

Three little frogs went to heaven. At the Pearly Gates St. Peter asked them to account for their time on Earth.

The first little frog said: "Oh, I'm a very ordinary little frog. I haven't done anything special - just the usual things little frogs do, like jumping in and out of puddles". "OK" said St. Peter, nodding him through.

The second little frog said: "I've nothing much to declare, but I've jumped in and out of puddles a few times". He was waved inside.

The third little frog was a bit of a dandy, with long curled eyelashes and a simpering smile. "And how about you?" asked St. Peter. The third little frog replied: "I'm Puddles".
